About This Pub
Ah, The Liquorice Gardens – it's one of those reliable Wetherspoon pubs that you can always count on for a good time without spending a fortune. I have to say, the staff really make the place; they're so friendly and efficient, you'll be served up in no time, whether it's a pint or a full meal. The food's a highlight too – think hearty, well-cooked dishes that hit the spot, and with prices that keep things light on the wallet, it's ideal for a casual get-together. There's heaps of space inside, with options for everyone, from sunny outdoor seats to those comfy booths, though I do miss the old dividers that gave a bit more privacy; now it's a tad more open, and you might overhear the next table's chat, which can be a downer on busier nights. Still, the facilities are top-notch and kept sparkling clean, which is always a plus after a few drinks. Overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxed evening – not without its little flaws, but the good bits far outweigh the bad, making it a go-to for anyone in Worksop looking for a warm, affordable vibe.
Pros and Cons
Pros
-
The staff are absolutely lovely and always cheerful, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in.
-
There's loads of space inside with plenty of seating options, including cosy booths and a sunny outdoor area that's perfect for a cheeky pint on a nice day.
-
The food is spot on – hot, tasty, and well-cooked, with good value prices that won't break the bank.
-
Service is prompt and efficient, whether you're at the bar or using the app, which is a real bonus for a quick catch-up with mates.
-
The facilities are kept spotlessly clean, and they've even got that top loo award, so you can pop off without any worries.
Cons
-
They've taken down some of the dividers that used to make the booths feel a bit more private and cosy, so now conversations from nearby tables can be a bit intrusive.
-
There are a few minor niggles, like the odd chair that doesn't quite match or the toilets not being everyone's cup of tea, even if they do have that award.

Lovely staff Lot's of space within the pub Lot's of seating options! Prompt bar service, very good food, and inclusive drink options. Also a very sunny outdoor seating area.
We go once a week. The food is always good and nicely cooked. Efficient and cheerful staff. Spotless facilities. But - why have you taken down the dividers making some seats into " booths". They were nice and cosy and a bit private. Now you can hear the next customers conversation etc. Please bring them back.
the chair was off putting as it was the wrong colour. very uncoordinated. very speedy service. great for introverts because app. good prices. toilet experience is naff. HOWEVER, they have top loo award of 2025 so i suppose the short journey and obvious toilets without the spoons experience is okay.
We visited early afternoon between Christmas and New Year. The decorations looked great! There were plenty of tables and a good number of booths which is always nice. The table service was fast and both meals were hot and tasty.
Yes it's a spoons but out of all the ones I've visited it was one on the nicest. Never have I ordered a Hendricks and it been served with cucumber (even though this it what it states on menu). Top marks Worksop. Didn't eat but plenty of people where and what I saw looked well cooked and nicely presented, definitely better than some other places which I won't name. Staff were extremely pleasant and cleared tables quickly despite how busy it was. Toilets were clean and well maintained.
